Free calculators for yoga studio owners

Two quick calculators for the arithmetic that decides a yoga studio year: what one class has to earn, and what covering the grid costs you in hours.

Owners rarely lack opinions about which classes are worth keeping. What they lack is a fast way to test the opinion against rent, teacher pay and a real average headcount, before the quarterly schedule goes out and a decision hardens for three months.

Both calculators run in your browser, keep nothing, and use defaults from a normal small studio week so the numbers mean something before you touch a single field. Change them to your own figures and the answer moves with you.

Why these calculators open without a sign up

No yoga owner should have to hand over an email to find out whether the Tuesday 6am vinyasa pays for itself. You already do this arithmetic by hand, usually on the back of a printed class grid: mats on the floor times a rough revenue per visit, minus the teacher rate for that slot, minus whatever share of rent and heating the room ate while it was open. Same for coverage, where the sum is three sub texts a week times the twenty odd minutes each one takes out of your evening. These tools run those two sums in the order you already do them, and there is nothing to create an account for.

They are worth using even if you never speak to us. Run the break even numbers across a full quarter of the grid and you will know which slots your packed Saturday flow is quietly carrying, which is the thing you need in hand before you move the Friday 7pm or merge a level 2 into the mixed level class. Run the coverage numbers and you have an hours figure for the part of the job nobody writes down, the part where you find a teacher for a 6am at eleven the night before. Take either figure to your accountant, your landlord or your longest serving teacher. Nothing is stored in your browser and nobody mails you afterward.

Now do it for every slot on the grid

A calculator handles one class or one month of coverage at a time. If the figures you just saw make you want to look at all forty slots and the substitutions sitting behind them, that is what MatCount holds week to week. A short demo runs the same arithmetic on your real roster rather than your notepad.
